WABA CATERINGSo so so good, definitely consider this for your next party! My sons first birthday party was this weekend and we invited 62 people (40 adults, 22 kids). I called and spoke to the Manager, David and he HANDLED EVERYTHING. Honestly I just trusted him with telling me what would be enough and he nailed it. He personally delivered the food and packed all the extra sauces and green onions for us. He was perfectly on time and the food was BOMB. Quite a hit and we have a lot of chicken left over for meal prep this week (SCORE!)Each tray serves 12 so we ordered 4 trays of protein: 1 grilled chicken, 1 ribeye, 2 spicy chicken.2 trays of rice2 trays of veggies80 dumplings.We chose Waba because our little man likes it and it was healthier than the tacos we had at my other kids birthday party and we will absolutely be recommending this location and this food to anyone who will listen. I didn't get pictures of the food because I was so busy but my father in law snapped some of the table full of food lol

So I went here based off of the reviews, service great but the chicken is tough and rubbery, this mean the quality is bad. I won't be coming back at all.

This location helped me cater an event for 100 people and I couldn’t be happier with the whole process. Daniel was extremely helpful over the phone, the food was packaged perfectly on time, and many of my guests commented how much they enjoyed the food. I will definitely use them again !

Wanted to try their food since ESPNLA is sponsored by them. Tried their chicken bowl and their tacos. The chicken was was over cooked and the tacos lacked any flavor.Unfortunate. If I were looking for the quick teriyaki-style chicken bowl, I would just return to Flame Broiler.

I love coming here! I come here at least once or twice a week for lunch. Manager and staff are really nice and always welcoming. I normally order online and pick up in person so my food is always ready when I get there. There's times when I order in person and they never have me waiting for a long time. Food is amazing! Service is above and beyond, cleanliness is 10 out of 10. Good job to the owner, management, and staff that run this location. You all are doing a really good job - from one of your regulars :)

The food was decent. The service was great.The main problem is the restrooms. They have a Gender Neutral restroom and a Women's restroom. This is not good. If you have a women's or a men's restroom, you are required to have the other gender restroom. Having a Gender Neutral And one/or the other doesn't work and, in fact, illegal. Either change the gender neutral to a men's (best option) or change the women's restroom to a gender neutral. I reported this violation before I posted the review.

If you like chicken, you'll probably like Waba Grill. Had an excellent meal that didn't break the bank. Chicken is moist and savory.

After going to multiple Waba locations and having terrible customer service and food quality. This is by far the best location in OC. Keep it up guys! ?
First time at this location and they had amazing service. The cashier was super friendly

This review is for their catering services. They offer some great platters at reasonable prices. We always choose their chicken and beef with white and brown rice, along with their signature house chicken salad served with their sesame dressing. The dessert platter is also a great addition with several different mini servings. I definitely recommend for all casual catering needs.

I placed my ordered and sat down for a while and I started noticing people coming in and out with their orders that they just barely placed 5-10 minutes. I looked over my shoulder and I noticed a bag pushed to the side and after waiting 30 minutes I stood up and that’s when they noticed me and said that my order is ready.They need to get better staff. The 2 girls there didn’t even seem like they care. Next time I’m ordering Flame broiler. Over all bad review!

Helen has such great energy and made me want to come back to this Waba Grill only. Also there was no wait during lunch time !

I love this Waba grille. I am here at least once a week. Everyone who works here is polite, the quality of the service is above par and the food is always fresh and consistent.
